INDUSTRIAL NETWORK

PRESENTATION TITLE 1
  Industrial Networks

Classified into three levels based upon the type of

data and devices that use the network.

Enterprise: non time critical information

Automation and Control: Real time I/O

Field device: switches, output devices

and drives
 Industrial Networks

3
Enterprise Level

* Shares data between all segments

*Transfers non-time critical data

*In the past proprietary networks have been used, but this
do not communicate with other networks. Ethernet has
been implemented to bridge devices from different
networks

*Ethernet is preferred network because high speed, open-

source protocol and competitive vendor pool
4
  Automation and Control Level

Transfers data between the controller and the I/O devices it

controls and to other controllers

Security
Determinism: data to be sent and received in a timely manner
and verified is correct Reliability 24/7 schedule even in hostile
environments

Data is high urgency – real time

Routers typically use to isolate networks and provide
security
5
 Field Device Level Networks

Connects individual I/O devices to a PLC

Replaces remote I/O racks, adapters, modules, and field wiring
with a direct connection to intelligent switches and output
devices
Ease of installation
Reduction of I/O wiring
Error and diagnostic reporting
Open networks and support different                                                     
     vendors 6
 ETHERNET TCP/IP

 Difference Ethernet/IP and TCP/IP
*TCP is an acronym with stands for Transmission Control Protocol.
This protocol is responsible for managing the connection between a
client and a server
*IP has two different meanings depending on how it is used:
Industrial Protocol for Ethernet/IP and Internet Protocol for TCP/IP
*Ethernet/IP uses the Ethernet infrastructure to manage the
connection between various automation devices such as robots,
PLCs, sensors, etc. Based on the Common Industrial Protocol

*TCP/IP industrial protocol used is Modbus TCP/IP which is

responsible for the transmission of the packets. TCP/IP is standard
in most programming languages (C,C++, Matlab). Also Modbus
TCP/IP is standard in most PCs.
 Ethernet/IP
 Is an offspring of the Common Industrial
Protocol CIP

Developed for transferring data on

Device Net and ControlNet (Fieldbus)
networks.
Advantage of speed and reliability of Ethernet

Never truly deterministic however good enough for

industry

 Cable

Cat 5 most common , also known as

10BaseT

Limited to 100 meters between

switches and or routers

Fiber optic run in extreme high

electrical noise (immune to noise)

Fiber optic up to 1500 meters between

switches
10
 RJ45 Connector Wiring

Category 5 Ethernet Cable uses 8 wires

twisted to form four pair of wires

2 standards for arranging the colors in

the RJ45 connector, T568A, and T568B

Straight through: are used to connect

devices to switches and routers

Crossover: used to directly connect

two Ethernet devices together
11
 Crossover cable
Often use to directly connect a computer to
an Ethernet/IP module for initial setup. The
computer runs a software utility called
BootP to set the IP address that the module
will use on the network

A crossover cable reverses the TX and RX lines

from one connector to the other to permit
connecting a PC directly to an Ethernet Device.

Usually color of cable is red to differentiate

PRESENTATION TITLE 12
 Bus (Backbone) Topology

Bus Topology does not have any link with passenger vehicle
BUS, and the central physical media cable, which acts as the
backbone of the network, is called Bus and hence the name. In this
Topology

PRESENTATION TITLE
  Ring Topology

A ring topology is a network architecture in which

devices are connected in a ring structure and
send information to each other based on their ring
node's neighbouring node.

PRESENTATION TITLE 14
 Star Topology
A star topology, sometimes known as a star network, is a network
topology in which each device is connected to a central hub. It is one of
the most prevalent computer network configurations, and it's by far the
most popular Network Topology.
  Routers
Used to connect different devices together while maintaining
isolation between the networks.

Only messages with the correct address can cross the router
from one network to another
 Switches

Intelligent Ethernet switches have replace hubs to reduce the

number of message collisions in the network
Collision occur frequently because more than one node tries to
transmit at the same time
Ethernet switch knows the address of each device on each port and stores
address in memory. When a message is received, the switch decodes the
destination address and sends the message only to the port of which the
device is connected
